Uresh, publishing at
All Things 787
The lines of the spreadsheet of relevance to this discussion which show non-zero entries as of the update are:
11 Undergoing final Assembly
7 Pre-flight prep
16 production testing
5 ready for delivery
That does not cover the pipeline back before actual final assembly, but that pipeline is nothing like a few hours in length. (I used to work in a different line of high-tech manufacturing).
The link did not work for me.
The ready for delivery of 5 I assume is over both plants?
